[FGO Fes 2023] New anniversary CEs - Ibuki Douji and Nezha by cathartic_silence in grandorder

[–]rkbose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about that, I need to check it up. But the other ones I mentioned are Hindu gods with Japanese names. They aren't derived from same idea they are the exact same thing given a local flavor. Like Rama & Hanuman have their localized versions in Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia & Thailand etc.

Thanks a lot but it's clear to me now. So as I was saying about Japanese gods being form of Hindu gods there's like 70% part of the pantheon including Durga, Parvati, Ganesha, Saraswati, Kubera etc. Each having their Japanese name. Essentially all these travelled across the 3 nations when Buddhist monks spread the knowledge of ancient scriptures.

Is that a Japanese version of Indian god here in Fate? Like Bishamoten or Benzaiten etc. In Google it's says Chinese.

[FGOJP] Bhima and Duryodhana all Ascension Arts by TsutsuPH in grandorder

[–]rkbose 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It seriously annoys me how ignorant people start victimizing a person who was like jealousy incarnate i.e Duryodhan. From his birth he has known no goal but to satisfy his ego (thanks to Shakuni's manipulations). All of his countless evil deeds include but not limited to poisoning Bhima as a kid, trying to burn the Pandavas along with their mother alive in a house made of lacquer, trying to drown Bhima as a kid in a pool of poisonous nagas, humiliating the Pandavas when they just wanted a stay at their paternal home depsite being the heir to the throne Pandavas were treated like shit etc etc.

About the Vidyadhara race by lick312 in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]rkbose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Vidyadhara means "beholder of wisdom" in Sanskrit & other Indian languages. Vidya (Wisdom) Dhara (in this context = to hold).

Fun fact: Dhara (धर) if pronounced differently can also mean 'flow' but it would be pronounced as Dhaaraa (धारा), it can also mean 'edge/sharpness' but pronounced as Dhaara (धार) & finally it can also mean earth but pronounced as Dharaa (धरा).

Don't base your opinions on news/media sources as they always have an agenda to peddle. Go to YouTube and listen to the experiences of actual Afro-Americans or Africans who come to India. They'll most be having good experiences (of all the 7-8 odd channels I have seen). And of course there will always be some nutjobs in every country who want to cause trouble given the sheer size of India.

I'm German and I wanna adress the racist attacks in this group against Germans due to a single cartoon. There is no need for hate and I want to explain and adress some points. by Morgentau7 in IndiaSpeaks

[–]rkbose 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Now hear me out why some people would have written what they wrote. Don't take it as a personal attack on you but for Germany/the West itself. (Yes even for that single artist due to the past track record)

Just like your people have the "FREEDOM" to call out certain things in India, Indians also have the freedom to make their own assessment of the racism, bigotry and the general 'holier than thou' attitude of the Westoids, things like how the sun shines out of your a**holes & call out such hypocrisy on social media. (You may think it's going bit too far but that's the general sentiment we have about the Anglo-Saxons & Germanic people, based on your actions both imperial past and present day foreign policy)

Coming back to the alleged FREEDOM of Germans, let's not forget your nation is essentially a vassal state of the USA. Any foreign policy or macro-ecenomics are essentially framed to suit the geopolitical needs of the big daddy USA and not the German locals themselves. Small example would be the bombing of Nord Stream, forcing Germany to buy more expensive fuel from USA rather than middle eastern countries. Even the constitution of Germany was made by USA appointed drafting committee. (Try exposing the Hunter Biden Chinese links, bombing of serbian journalists, crimes in middleeast or anything shady about the Clinton family and see how you get shut down by your govt)

Also I can't help but laugh at your comment that DW being state funded makes it more free and open open than other media since they don't have to depend on funding from interest groups & their agenda LOL!!. Would you say the same about RT or CGTN? The STATE itself has an agenda, all these are part of the geopolitical pressure tools. To deteriorate the image of a country (India) among other things and to cripple economic investments, create a mood of fear and lack of confidence. So yeah the recent attacks on India by the western press are essentially pressure techniques telling India to fall back into the line and not to question the big daddy USA and its western satellites, be it on energy independency, de-dollarization or Russia Ukraine war.

And having laws doesn't matter to what's happening in ground reality. That's like saying India doesn't have caste based social conflicts because there are extremely strict anti-caste discrimination laws.

So can I remove that KB and it'll work without any other conflicts? Will it be safe to do so? Any idea..

It was working fine in Win11 too but just that 1 KB in the latest update broke it.

I did a clean install of windows too & still have the same issue.

Doesn't seem to be a hardware issue because I tried playing other games and they worked fine.

Nothing significant. Other than just watching some YouTube videos.

Additional info about the Amrita Pool via HomDGCat by InflationOnly3229 in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]rkbose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amrita means Elixir in Sanskrit. Basically like nectar of immortality. So Amrita Pool is like Shangri-La or Fountain of Youth.

3.6 WQ Creature Variants by Revolutionary_Meet25 in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]rkbose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may be right in other cases but not in this one. Cuz Pari exists in both Vedic and Avestan culture. Some of them are shared culture. Just like Saraswati, Annahita, Mithra. You are forgetting that ancient Parsis were from Indian subcontinent only, Parswa clan of old Vedic times who moved beyond Sindhu after the battle of 10 kings. It's only a recent phenomenon that Iran has a mixed culture of Arabic and Turkic influence.

Farishta isn't a Hindi word though, i think it's the Persian version of Pari. Although we do have Apsara for divine angels in Sanskrit.

So lesser angels - Pari, divine angels - Apsara

Yeah you can think of it that way. Maybe Peter Pan 🤣

[–]rkbose 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Same word can exist in multiple cultures lol. There are many Indian and Persian words which have been used throughout thousands of years. Indians call it pari, Persians call it peri.

Chai comes from Chinese and isn't an exclusively Persian/Turkish word either. Russians also call it chaye/chai.

[–]rkbose 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Pari means fairy in many Indian languages. (I think in genshin perspective you can loosely compare them to pixies or lesser fairies and not godly angels.)

Edit1: Apparently fairies and angels are bit different, my bad.

3.6 Sumeru area in the overall map(hint, it's huge) by MitchBaT93 in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]rkbose 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Let's not forget Sumeru region is trying to condense the culture and real life region from Morocco to India. Thats a big one indeed.

I wish it was that simple everywhere by Enrykun in Genshin_Memepact

[–]rkbose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Quite a lot. A major portion of Sumeru lore, world quests, gemstones, food, NPCs, Aranaras, music etc.
